Beyond The Weight With Henny And Sandy

For our series finale episode (Can we even call it that?), we wanted to thank each and every person who listened to us, engaged with us, and encouraged us throughout this podcast journey. For now, we say good-bye to the podcasting world, but we’re open to what the future holds for us.

This week’s question was so open-ended that we weren’t sure where it was going to take us.

This week’s question seemed pretty quick and easy at first, but then we both got ourselves second-guessing a bit! (Well, Henny was more unsure than Sandy, to be honest.)
